Egg Pizza

Dr. Su’s Egg Pizza

Back in September, I came across a reference to Dr. Robert Su, blogger and author of Carbohydrates Can Kill.
I have not read his book yet, or frankly a lot of his blog, but it’s
in the queue! What I have done is made his breakfast pizza! I found
this recipe in Dr. Su’s forum one morning. So when the urge for breakfast struck, I decided to give it a try.
Here’s Dr. Su’s instructions copied directly from his website, accompanied by pictures of my breakfast.

“Let
me share with you my staple breakfast menu, which I have cooked every
morning for the past nearly 8 years, except the times when I was
traveling. In the ingredients include five eggs for my family of three.
You can use two eggs for each person, though. One cup of shredded
cheese from whole milk. One large avocado. three small links of fresh
sausage. 1/2 cup of chopped tomato. 1/3 cup of green or red or yellow
pepper.

(1) Slice the avocado into three pieces. If you are by yourself or with your better half, you can use only one half of it.

(2) Boil the fresh sausage for 10 minutes. One sausage for each person.

(3)
Make an egg pizza: Have a non-stick pan, in which pour two tablespoons
of olive oil. Place the pan in an small oven for pre-heat at 300 degrees
F. Put five tablespoons of coconut oil in a medium mixing cup. Scramble
all the eggs in the coconut oil. When the preheat is ready, get the
pan out and pour all the scrambled egg into the pan. Place the pan back
to the oven for 5 to 7 minutes until the egg is turned in yellow.Turn of
the oven and retreat the pan.”

“Evenly
place the chopped tomato and pepper (or mushroom, if you prefer) over
the cooked egg. Spread the shredded cheese evenly over the tomato and
pepper. Place the pan back into the oven.”

“Set
the oven for broil for 3-5 minutes, depending the degree of broil you
like for the cheese. Take the pan out and slice into three pieces for my
family of three. “

“The
total calories for me is around 650, because I take a larger share of
the egg-pizza. I do not feel hungry even do not have the time for lunch
until 4-5 o’clock. The postprandial glycemia is usually going up less
than 10 mg% and returns to the fasting BG level within 30-45 minutes. “

“The breakfast is very delicious and filling.“

Yes Dr Su, it certainly is!!
Since I was cooking for one, I had to cut the portions and used only
two eggs. And as you can see, my avocado was a little over ripe, but
the perfect side dish for the egg pizza and sausage. I really thought
the egg mixture would stick to the pan and be too thin to remove without
falling apart, but it slid right out. It’s no wonder that he and his
family have had this for eight years…I don’t think I would ever get
tired of it either! And even though I am currently avoiding dairy, the
technique with the eggs and coconut oil is wonderful, and one I plan to
use for some future dishes. I left a comment for Dr. Su about how much I
enjoyed the dish and how it kept me satiated for hours. And he replied
almost immediately with a kind note. I think he is one of the good guys
and it’s a big deal for me to say that about a doctor!
And to top it off, he’s a good cook!
